The Cave of Origin is a location in Octopath Traveler and the dungeon of Ophilia's Chapter 1. It is a cavern in the hills East of Flamesgrace housing the First Flame of the god Aelfric
Story[]
Every twenty years, the chosen Flamebearer of the Church of the Sacred Flame journeys to the Cave of Origin to retrieve the Sacred Flame. The Sacred Flame is then taken to the churches of Orsterra during the Kindling Ceremony.
On the day before Lianna, the chosen Flamebearer, is to travel to the Cave of Origin, Archbishop Josef, her father, suddenly collapses from illness. Ophilia Clement, Lianna's adopted sister, travels to the Cave of Origin in her stead so Lianna can stay at her father's side.
Inside the cavern Ophilia is challenged by the Guardian of the First Flame in order to prove herself worthy to carry the Sacred Flame. Ophilia defeats the Guardian and obtains Aelfric's Lanthorn, becoming the Flamebearer in Lianna's stead.
